Discrimination Alive and Well

Discrimination is, according to Dictionary.com, the treatment consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit.I believe discrimination is every where. I had stated in my discussion topic-"Will there ever be a cure for discrimination?" I addressed my group with this question and they said no. Then we discussed alternatives and what not. Its like wishing for world peace right here right now.

I think that discrimination in the work force is caused by the lack of confidence that is experienced by those around you. A lack of self worth. I think that if we all just stop caring about what other people think then maybe we would all just get along.

An example mentioned in class of a guy working at Victoria's Secrets really got me to realize that guys should be able to work where ever they want just as well as a women.
